Le Marechal

7 Comments:

Your marechal has the same moustache as my grandfather: he was a lawyer, but had to wear a military uniform and climb on a horse to serve his country during the wars of 1897, 1912-13, 1917-18, 1920-22... And my grandmother had an outfit like the one in your picture. Her favourite pet was a gallo whom she made wear a bombacha in order to keep her house clean.

Sorry for the long comment, oscar, second time today i come up with personal memories...

Definitely not! This grandfather was much more a monarchist than a venizelist- and things were rough between the two parties in those years.Besides, i don't think i could be anyone's grandSON... :-))Thanks again for the hospitality!
